What System is this?
The I have had too much to drink System?
Stone cold here, bubbles.

The system?

It's the balancing leg of any system being,
Spend a bit of time with loved ones too so,
You can keep perfecting your systems!

cheers LG

A little off the original topic but in relation to the title correct weight.

Does anyone considered in there ratings the effects of a jockeys weight and the lead weight put into a horse.

For example.
If a horse is handicapped at 59kg and has a 58kg jockey + 1kg lead vs. a 52kg jockey + 7kgs of lead.

Sometimes the extra weight from a jockey could be viewed as extra muscle hence more power etc.....

Food for thought!

And while on the subject, does anyone know the system in the US where they seem to declare a race as completed long before the jockey has weighed in? Seems sometimes to be still on the horse even!!
